It arrived already holed in a lot of international coins. What else do you do with a holey coin?

Thanks, Marve! This one was also in the lot. I haven't figured out what to do with it yet, but it will probably involve a nail.

Well, at least if you lose your key, it should be easy to track down.

This was in a little box of WWII international coins inherited from my grandfather (who fought in the European theater). Looks like it was used as a button. It is even hammered concave.

Excellent, smat and Brandmeister! These coins get to see the light of day and be used again as opposed to languishing unloved and forgotten in a box.

Thank you, Dearborn! Most collectors have a holed coin, and what can you do with them?
